Ask HN: Quit stimulants, productivity suffering

hnthrowhelp12 Wednesday, December 18, 2024

Hi HN - Senior SWE at FAANG who has basically stayed afloat via stimulants which gradually ruined my life and emotional well being.

I finally broke the chains and more or less replaced these bad habits with healthier ones, which has been great. However, I can barely function at work and my contributions have dropped to near zero. It’s causing me immense stress in a culture that is cutthroat.

How can I rebuild a normal way of working?
